ORIGINAL “Law & Order” star Michael Moriarty is endorsing Fred Thompson for president, according to reports.

The odd-ball actor who played Ben Stone, the first assistant DA, on the hit series is saying that he’s voting for fellow “L&O” star Thompson because Thompson is against abortion.

“I will personally vote for Mr. Fred Thompson and help his campaign as best I can,” the actor told a North Carolina newspaper over the weekend.

“I don’t believe his entrance into this campaign ever carried enough pro-life commitment to do the job that has to be done,” Moriarty says, referring to his belief that Roe v. Wade should be overturned.

But no other candidate was sufficiently anti-abortion to appeal to him, the actor said.
